@petergyang Building my company from Amsterdam. Office is a 12 minute bike ride, kids in school down the street, dinner with friends two nights a week. Still shipping.
The tradeoff Americans assume exists mostly doesn’t.
@JSMachineGod@burckmeister Most sick leave lasts a few days. The long cases are mostly burnout, and that's exactly where an employer who has to help you back makes the difference.
Because the government can't change anyone's job. The employer can: adjusted hours, other tasks, a different manager. When the state carried it, we nearly hit a million people on disability. Most people want to work, they just need a way back. And small employers insure the risk, so the cost gets spread like any other insurance.

@burckmeister Fair on small employers, that's the real weak spot. But your own timeline shows intent: each reform pushed cost to whoever can prevent long absence. Disability inflow fell 71% between 1999 and 2009. Edge cases like the 4-week reset need fixing. The core works.
Our robots built this in the city of Almere: curved walls, different types of bricks and bonds, indented text.
Real world deployment, insane complexity, 100% of every brick done by our robots, with another 15 houses to come in the coming weeks.
